Responding to questions about the coincidence of May 2nd and Easter Monday in the previously-released list of 2016 non-working public holidays in the Ukraine, the Ministry of Social Policy has re-issued the letter ?10846 ("On the calculation of working time rules for 2016") which confirms that "despite the fact that a day off match two holidays, the transfer is subject to only one day - Sunday (May 1) on Tuesday (May 3)".

The aforementioned re-statement that Only Monday and Tuesday, May 2-3, 2016, will be non-working public holidays in the Ukraine, is in line with the Disposition No.1155 of last autumn (12-Nov-2015), which approved the previously-released draft resolution (25-Sep-2015) by the Ukraine's Ministry of Social Policy, specifying the annual official list of 2016 non-working public holidays in the Ukraine, as well as the postponement of some working days in 2016, "in order to create favorable conditions for the rational use of working time".
